Help Amy and her family fight cancer

Our beautiful friend Amy has just received a diagnosis which has turned her and her young family's world upside down. Amy has been diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma, and while her and her family come to terms with what this means for them, I wanted to offer a way for people to help out, as many of their friends and family are already wanting to provide all the support they can.

They need a lot of ongoing support with child care and travel to and from hospital, the closest of which is an hours drive away. Amy's parents are making plans to come over from Malaysia ASAP, but with the current corona virus outbreak, combined with Amy's health, this is not a straight forward process, involving a lot of costs including 2 weeks accommodation costs for isolation and the self quarantine process. As you can imagine, all they want is to be together.

One of the easiest ways we can help is by easing the stress of all the costs that are going to start building up, primarily travel for her parents and for Rod, Lucas and Holly to visit her regularly in hospital. As many of you know, Amy runs her own photography business to support her family. With her diagnosis she is unable to work for at least the next 6 months, and financial stress is the last thing we want her worrying about.

If Amy is a friend who you'd take out for coffee or dinner to catch up, it would be amazing if instead you could put the cost of that into a donation for her family, every little bit helps. And when she's getting back to her healthy wonderful self, maybe you can take her for an actual coffee and catch up!

We all know Amy is a fun, caring and hard-working woman with friends all over the world- so lets use the power of the internet to get together and help her and her family out.
